We study the homogenization problem for matrix strongly elliptic operators on $L_2(\mathbb R^d)^n$ of the form $\mathcal A^\varepsilon=-\operatorname{div}A(x,x/\varepsilon)\nabla$. The function $A$ is Lipschitz in the first variable and…

Several quantum gravity scenarios lead to physics below the Planck scale characterised by nonlocal, Lorentz invariant equations of motion. We show that such non-local effective field theories lead to a modified Schr\"odinger evolution in…

The meaning of local observables is poorly understood in gauge theories, not to speak of quantum gravity. As a step towards a better understanding we study asymptotic (infrared) transformation in local quantum physics. Our observables are…
